We have identified a total of 2,418 U.S. Marine Corps recipients of the Silver Star during the
Vietnam War. We believe that this
index of Vietnam War recipients is 90% complete, though we continue to sort
through records to identify late awards, as well as to compile addition
information on the recipients (Rank/Unit/etc.) and their citations. The
pages below provide the name, rank, date of action, and unit of the nearly
2,500 Marine Corps awards we have identified.

A special thanks is due to William L.
Myers, author of Honor the Warrior, for sharing his own extensive
research into USMC Silver Star Awards, and to the Marine Corps History
Division.
